Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania (or PA, as she calls herself), also known by her human name, Clara Engel Washington, is a perky and caring individual. She is very outgoing and friendly in personality but is a massive introvert and prefers being left to her own devices. If she does go to outings, they are typically small ones with very few people in attendance.
PA is also very self-conscious of how she is perceived by others, especially with her amputated arm, and can become quiet and soft-spoken in environments where she feels she is being judged harshly. She doesn't like to be perceived as a problem or wrong, so she prefers to keep her head down in those scenarios.
However, with people she is comfortable with, PA can be very loud, outspoken, and not as self-conscious. With people she is comfortable around, she does not feel that she can be judged as a problem for inconsequential reasons.

Pennsylvania is four foot eleven and physically twenty-six. She has brown eyes and wavy brown hair that goes down to her boobs. She has freckles, although not heavy freckles, but still covering much of her face and arms. Her right arm is amputated just past the elbow.
In country form, her face is her flag, and the blue continues down the rest of her body. The red ribbon from her flag also traces its way down her body.
In human form, she looks kinda white, 75 White-25 POC, based on the 2020 census (this is also a very loose definition, but I am trying to give you a good baseline for "mixed"). The largest ethnic groups are German, Irish, Italian, Latino, and African American. Despite often being mistaken for white, Pennsylvania is mixed.
She has a slim figure and small boobs, and with her hair tied back and wearing baggy clothing, she is often mistaken for a man.
Pennsylvania’s animal traits come from the horse, the lion, and the bald eagle. She has wings, horse ears, lion claws, patches of lion fur on her arms and legs, and tail feathers. She gained the lion traits on September 28, 1776. She gained her eagle traits on July 1, 1809, and her horse traits on June 13, 1907. Her wingspan is 13.18 ft.
Pennsylvania has not changed much over the years, aside from a slightly darker skin tone. She lost her right arm in 1863 during the Battle of Gettysburg.
